Okay, so I finally tried these Pair of Thieves boxer briefs everyone's raving about. Here's the real tea:
First off - YES, they're stupid soft. Like, 'why did I ever wear anything else' soft. The fabric feels like it was designed by angels who specialize in crotch comfort.
BUT - sizing is whack. I usually wear medium in everything, but these fit like they're trying to audition for a sausage casing commercial. Had to size up to large for them to not feel like a medieval torture device.
The waistband actually stays put though? Like through squats, running after the bus, and my questionable dance moves at weddings. No rolling, no digging - just does its job like a good little waistband should.
Moisture-wicking is legit. Wore them through a sweaty gym session and didn't get that swampy feeling. Though if you're used to cotton, the polyester blend takes some getting used to - kinda feels like your butt is wearing athletic wear.
Pro tip: Don't put these in the dryer unless you want your waistband to look like a crinkle-cut fry. Air dry only!
Final verdict? Once you figure out the sizing thing (seriously, size up), these might become your new underwear MVPs. Just maybe don't buy 10 pairs until you've tested one pack first.
